Chile · VALPARAíSO TOURS

He knew the city very well and showed us an interesting variety of street art, significant places, and local characters. For anyone concerned about safety, Joaquin is very cautious and we felt much safer with him than if we had wandered by ourselves.”

“Christian was passionatein his pride and love of his home city Valparaiso. Our small group tour was wonderful. He was successful in personalizing the tour to the interests of the group, and showed how friendly, artistic and creative the vibe of Vaparaiso is. There seemed to be a pleasant surprise around many corners. We highly recommend this tour.”

“Our tour guide John was excellent! Very good English, very knowledgeable about the history, the street art, the food and local customs. It was a walking tour that was very doable for a 62 yr old! We had a fun funicular ride, got to taste a pisco sour (great!!) and checked out some cool shops along the way. Highly recommend this tour!! Loved John’s humor!!”
Pick a latitude, a canyon or a cellar.
